In the 175th year after the creation of the Fortress of Stability, the Founders began to feel their powers diminishing. They had not been young when the Maek'tai left them behind, and now they started realizing the effects of old age creeping in. They knew they would eventually die out, as all things do, and that the defense of the Gates would have to be left up to the lesser races of the Realms. The Founders went to the leaders of each Realm in turn, telling them of the situation and beseeching the Rulers that if of each Nation would give their 3rd Born child to the cause, then the barriers between the Realms could be maintained indefinitely. Many Rulers agreed, feeling honored at being able to repay the Founders for their long toil against the forces of chaos. At the age of 18, these 3rd born were sent to the Founders. Within a month, out of 1,125 Realms, nearly 700 3rd born princes arrived at The Fortress of Stability. The Founders took in and trained these princes in the use of the Gates and in the crafts necessary to fight the Demons of the many Realms yet un-stabilized. For it would soon be up to them alone to guard the Gates and maintain the Barriers between the Realms. These first 700 princes named themselves The 3rd Gate Defenders. Each generation after, the Rulers of the Realms sent their 3rd born child to the Fortress on their 18th birthday. Their numbers continued to grow, and by the time the last Founder passed away, many thousands of 3rd born’s were busy in both the Fortress of Stability and in other strongholds throughout the Realms. They had learned everything they could from the Founders, They were all that stood now between the tentative peace and total chaos. It is now 2,391 years since the birth of the 3rd Gate Defenders, and the Fortress of Stability still stands in the center of the chaotic torrent of Realms. Even though thousands of worlds had been liberated, fewer and fewer of the older worlds now send their 3rd born. The Defenders do not begrudge these Realms, still helping them in times of great need, but they are much quicker to respond to threats within the worlds and Nations who still help fill their ranks. consequat. |
